        <span class="bold"><strong>Inherits:</strong></span> If T is a (possibly cv-qualified)
        type with a trivial copy-constructor then inherits from <a class="link" href="integral_constant.html" title="integral_constant">true_type</a>,
        otherwise inherits from <a class="link" href="integral_constant.html" title="integral_constant">false_type</a>.
      </p>
<p>
        These two traits are synonyms for each other.
      </p>
<p>
        If a type has a trivial copy-constructor then the constructor has the same
        effect as copying the bits of one object to the other: calls to the constructor
        can be safely replaced with a call to <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">memcpy</span></code>.
      </p>
<p>
        <span class="bold"><strong>Compiler Compatibility:</strong></span> Without some (as
        yet unspecified) help from the compiler, has_trivial_copy will never report
        that a user-defined class or struct has a trivial constructor; this is always
        safe, if possibly sub-optimal. In addition, in order to correctly handle
        deleted or private copy-constructors then C++11's <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">dectype</span></code>
        is required. Currently (May 2015) compilers more recent than Visual C++ 8,
        GCC-4.3, Greenhills 6.0, Intel-11.0, and Codegear have the necessary compiler
        <a class="link" href="../intrinsics.html" title="Support for Compiler Intrinsics">intrinsics</a> to ensure that
        this trait "just works". You may also test to see if the necessary
        <a class="link" href="../intrinsics.html" title="Support for Compiler Intrinsics">intrinsics</a> are available
        by checking to see if the macro <code class="computeroutput"><span class="identifier">BOOST_HAS_TRIVIAL_COPY</span></code>
        is defined.
